Sri Lankan beauty queen
Jacqueline Fernandez has bagged a role opposite Salman Khan! The actress who
shot to fame with movies like "Murder 2" and "Housefull 2"
would be the female lead opposite the Bollywood heartthrob in a remake of the
2009 Telugu hit, "Kick".
Two of her films,
"Housefull 2" and "Race 2", had grossed over Rs. 100 in
collections and caught the attention of Sajid Nadiadwala, who was looking for
fresh actresses. He targeted Jacqueline after he and Salman Khan were impressed
with her work. Previously, Deepika Padukone was being considered for the role.
The film marks Sajid
Nadiadwala's directorial debut and would be ready by July 2014 as Salman's Eid
release.
Nadiadwala has also hired the
services of Hollywood cinematographer Alexander Witt and got international
stunt directors Spiro Razatos and Philippe Guegan to work on this film.
Despite Jacqueline's success
with her last two films, having grossed over Rs. 100, working with Salman Khan
is the gig that will give her the leverage every newcomer in Bollywood would
want. (Source)
